Background
Iacobus Arell was born to horse breeders in Bree-Land. Growing up, he was a voracious reader, with a keen mind. Even as a youth Iacobus was an avid trader and diplomat, so to speak. He handled people well. Not in a charismatic way, he just seemed to know their motivations, what made them tick, et cetera.
The Arell family had enough to pay for Iacobus to be educated by a tutor until he was about 16. At that point, he began an apprenticeship under a merchant. During this time, he also studied under scholars at the Scholar's Stair Archives. As soon as his apprenticeship was finished, Iacobus began working for various merchant companies and caravans.
Recently, he ascended to the head of an established merchant company, making something of a splash in the business world. However, many might still consider him an upstart.
He tends to be a bit snarky and short with those who annoy him. That is, when he isn't hiding his irritation behind an almost perfect facade of blissful indifference.
((If you have any merchant related RP storylines, events, or any other form of RP, then please send me a message on LA or in-game. It is likely his name has been popping up on bills of sale, contracts, etc. Feel free to recognize his name if your character deals with such things.))
